Gillian Mitchell

Gill Mitchell is an English painter living and working in France. She has been painting for some 25 years and specialises in landscapes and portraits. During her life, she has been fortunate enough to live in Devon, Scotland, Norfolk and now the Dordogne area of South-West France. She has drawn inspiration from the beautiful and very different landscapes in each of these areas. Most of her early work has been in watercolour and gouache, the medium with which she won the Margaret Carter prize for four years running in Devon. Over the past five years, though, she has started to work increasingly in oils, making the most of the texture and depth they can convey. Her work is held in many private collections in the United States, France and the UK.
